I can already tell that this sweater will be a favorite of mine. I normally wear a size M in the alpaca sweaters sold on Novica and the Small/Med size worked very well for me. The sweater is also super soft and very pretty. The front of it almost comes down to my natural waist and the longer back lays nicely. I cannot wait to layer it over some of my longer fitted t-shirts this fall.
A beautiful shawl, in a good, wearable size. Soft and lightweight and warm. You should know, though, that "gossamer wine" and "maroon" are the same color! I would love to see some new colors, and not just new names for the same colors.
